Item 8.01.     Other Events.
On May 27, 2016, William G. Dorey informed Granite Construction Incorporated’s (the “Company”) Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of his resignation from his position as a member of the Company’s Audit/Compliance Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Mr. Dorey will retain his membership on the Board of Directors (the “Board”) and the Company’s Executive Committee, which reviews and considers for approval certain Company construction projects. The Board and Company Management believe that Mr. Dorey’s successful history and experience with Granite, along with his in-depth knowledge of the construction industry, are valuable to the Company and Board and demonstrate that Mr. Dorey is well qualified to serve on the Board. Under the Board's retirement age policy, Mr. Dorey is required to retire from the Board at the Company’s 2017 Annual Shareholder Meeting.
